Abstract:
When Fred Turnage was elected mayor of Rocky Mount in 1973, he was the youngest person ever elected to that office. He has been mayor ever since. He dealt with some contentious issues during his tenure as mayor, including Sunday “blue” laws; liquor by the drink; and the merger of the city and county school systems. One of his greatest challenges was the flood of 1999. Turnage plans to retire after his ninth term.
